I'm waiting on the Monty Python as well -- though he has seen (or at least is familiar with) the Black Knight in MP and the Holy Grail.

Our son saw MP and the Holy Grail when he was 7 or 8 (he's 9 now). We have it on DVD, and skipped the Tale of Sir Galahad (the virgins in the castle). The rest of it is ok with us. He's allowed to watch it now without us over his shoulder, and he skips that chapter by himself, he knows he's not allowed to watch it, and he'd rather watch the rest of it than not be allowed to watch any of it. I think his humor is much more dry and witty than most of his friends, and he gets a lot of our jokes, while his sail over his friends' heads.

He was also singing "Long Black Veil" at the age of 2-2 1/2. Nothing like a tot singing about "been in the arms of my best friends wife". He didn't know what he was singing about, but loved/loves the Cheiftans.

I would simply ask, would it have been appropriate, say, twenty or forty years ago?

More than likely it probably would be. I think people are more stupid today than 20 or 40 years ago.

Yes, it was appropriate and funny when Nancy Reagan poked fun at Ronald Reagan in 1982, more than 20 years ago.

Do you have a transcript or summation of that? I'd be interested in comparing the tone and context.

Cedric The Entertainer was the invited guest of the White House.

You just reminded me of something: it was this same dinner a few years ago when the same bunch went BEZERK when the story came out that Bush had invited Ozzie Osburne to this dinner; it went on for days, trashing Bush was sinking this low.

And when it turned out Bush did NOT invite Osburne, nobody took back what they had said.

Pretty telling.

Kidd Rock comes to mind, too.

>> "How do you suppose the person in the joke would try to milk a male horse? By pulling his nose? His tail?" <<

And what do you think would happen if the silly city boy tried to pull the male horses "thing"? I think that the horse would probably kick him in the head. What would NOT happen is any sort of masturbation (an activity which implies an attempt to sexually stimulate). Certainly the city guy did not have that in mind, and I am sure that the horse would not take it as a favorable thing (but then I don't have any personal experience attempting this - maybe you do).

>> "just because they drink the Bush Kool-aid" <<

OK, now it comes out, you are just anti-Bush. That is why you have to color this with your own nasty thoughts.

Don't you just love it. If they are so sick of these threads, why don't they just stay off of them?

Anyway, I respect your opinion on the matter, you are entitled to it....and I won't end this with a snide remark.

Have a great day!!!

Well, I watched Airplane! with my son when he was 7 or 8 (he's 9 now) -- I completely forgot about the brief bare breasts....

Heh. I forgot about that too.

I think it was the autopilot scenes where my spouse and I looked at each other and said whoopsie, this is not for the little ones.

Still, that was relatively tame and subtle compared to some of Laura's jokes.

Which brings me to what Michelle Malkin is objecting to: increasingly mainstream vulgarity.

Cultural conservatives are not about burning copies of Airplane! or banning South Park.

We're about keeping certain kinds of hypersexualized performances and certain kinds of hypersexualized humor in their proper contexts and venues, giving people a choice over the amount of that material they or their children are exposed to.

Mainstreaming this kind of material takes away that choice.

So that's my question to all the defenders of Laura's act: Is a public performance by a First Lady, any First Lady, a proper venue for blue jokes?

Once the Liberals took hold of the education system in this country by unionizing it and paying more attention to the teachers union than the students, the educational system in this country has gone downhill.

President Bush comes along and gets NCLB passed, which holds the educational system to account, the Liberals in this country go ape.

Really? I missed that one. That's good on my fraternity brother. He will always be remembered as the one who said "F**k Jesse Jackson!" on Barbershop.

Right. But do you remember the uproar about Bush inviting him, and even -- dare I say it -- speaking to him??

Wow, that's really magnanimous of you, considering you two are on the same side of the argument.

Oh yeah, please don't post to me!

If the needlebutts and pinheads actually used that mash potato of a brain of theirs, they would understand that everyone at the head table are the ones invited by the White House. Jim Angle was at the head table.

Speaking of Ozzy Osbourne, he was not at the head table, he was at the FOX News Channel table. Greta invited him.
